why does
"blockchain_delegate_pay_rate": "1.34714 BTSX",
keep decreasing.  Whats the algorithm?  Haven't transactions and thus fees increased?

each block pays TOTAL_FEES_COLLECTED/(12*NUMBER_OF_BLOCKS_PER_DAY).
total fees collected is almost entirely from creating new assets (since it is the singular most expensive transaction one can make). People haven't made assets in a while

The big transaction that generated the most fees was asset registration.  It is still burning through that.  The block explorer shows an average of less than 1 trx every 10 seconds, so we can expect delegate pay to approach 0.5 BTSX until things pick up some more.

I just decreased the payrate of my delegates by 20% .. hence that payrate is also reduced
